Getting in touch with friends is difficult after people change schools or move house. They don’t know how to start the conversation again if they don’t talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch with old friends, but they are afraid to do so.
Psychologists (心理学家) from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don’t call their old friends.70% of them don’t want to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them or are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.
Lara Aknin, one of the psychologists, said, “Most people are worried that they have different lifestyles and interests now. But these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting, they won’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的) at all. Instead, they know each other better.”
In fact, if you get in touch with an old friend, you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So, why not give your old friend a call?

七、任务型阅读(每小题1分,共5分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成句子。
Yesterday my brother and I went to watch a soccer game. We watched our favourite teams, the Eagles and the Hawks.
The seats were good and they were not far from the field (球场). We sat and enjoyed the game. But then we began to argue because my brother and I both thought our team was better than the other team. He always says the Eagles are faster and smarter than the Hawks. On that day, he was wrong. The Hawks played a lot better than the Eagles. They won by 6 goals.
One thing I didn't like was the food. It was more expensive, and it tasted much worse. A hot dog was $7 and it was much smaller than normal (一般的) ones.
Driving home, I talked about how much better my team was than the Eagles. My brother got angry and we argued again. We arrived home at around 7:00 pm. It was later than usual.
All in all, it was a great day. I love going to watch the game with my brother.

Psychologists (心理学家) from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don’t call their old friends.70% of them don’t want to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them or are too busy to talk with them.

41. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By giving a fact. C. By asking a question. D. By listing numbers.

B. Because they don’t want to trouble their old friends.
C. Because they have nothing to say to their old friends.
D. Because they don’t care about their old friends at all.
